Hi Richard,

This is definitely an interesting usage.

Time slots: Can be done two ways. One by having 24 events. Two, by using the time slot feature in a single event. We even have a feature (experimental) that so long as not used with group bookings it can limit the availability of each time slot, making a single event even more viable.

The tricky part is the pricing and ticket.

One way to do it would be to use our Price Modifier add on. This allows you to set questions that can change the ticket price.

These questions/answers can also be shown on the ticket.

What this means is you would get a single ticket (so can only be scanned once) but would have the additional information available on it.

There may well be other ways to achieve this, but I think that this is probably the easiest way within our plugin.

Example event http://d.pr/i/lmeA

Example ticket http://d.pr/i/xavF (note I have modified the ticket template to allow the extra questions, and not made it pretty at all).

Regarding the late bookers, it may be simplest to have an additional ticket for those, though you wouldnt be able to link them together. Either that or modify their ticket and get them to pay.

“One final question. Would it be possible (via a non-public login?) to use the same system to issue tickets onsite, for those that just turn up on the day, but not go via online payment?”

Yes but you would still need an internet connection as everything is done online. You could manually add them into the system via the admin (cash payments) or use the front end process to take an online payment (if needed).

Let me know if you need clarification or have any other questions.
